<p>I just finished my first year and for second year if i take organic chemistry in summer and organic lab with regular courses is that any effect on my medical resume ?</p>
<p>Is that good idea to take second year organic chem in summer and physics with regular courses to maintain my G P A.
Please Advice Me.</p>
<p>Lots of students do this, and it usually works out great (as long as the Summer School is ACS-approved of course).</p>
<p>I had a good friend who tried taking OChem during the regular semester. When it appeared she was going to get a ‘B’ she dropped the course and retook it during the Summer. Not the preferred approach!</p>
<p>I hate to do this, but the word is “advise”. Advice is what is given, but the advice is usually given from an Advisor, that is advising you.</p>
<p>I imagined that the OP was saying “Advice me” the way Elaine on Seinfeld told her hairstylist to “Sauce me” (using tomato sauce to get a smell out of her hair).</p>
<p>^I see advice/advise used incorrectly on CC all the time. Not to mention their/there/they’re, yada yada yada (sorry, I couldn’t pass that up) ;).</p>
<p>So I won’t feel so bad about going OT; OP, go to the Premed Topics forum and use the Search function for ‘summer’, you’ll find many threads that discuss this topic.</p>
<p>Loose and Lose are big for using wrong as well.</p>
<p>how did this turn into a thread about Commonly Misused Words</p>
<p>Anyone planning on grad or medical school better brush up on their (they’re/there) spelling- attention to details shows on applications. Physician here. “medical resume”, oh, my. Premed I presume. Doubt they care when you take prerequisite courses. Consider the rest of your courses, your major (planning your schedule for those courses) and costs.</p>
<p>It seems English is your second language. You are going to have to work on your language skills to get that high GPA you want.</p>
<p>Another push for taking your question to the Pre-med forum (or do a search there as it’s a common question). There are places that do not like to see pre-req courses taken over the summer… Check with the experts over at Pre-med for the pros/cons.</p>
